There''re basically two methods to enter a given C-state: legacy (hlt + I/O read), and native(using mwait). MWAIT is always preferred when both underlying CPU and OS support, which is a more efficient way to conduct C-state transition. Xen PM relies on Dom0 to parse ACPI Cx/Px information, which involves one step to notify BIOS about a set of capabilities supported by OSPM. One capability

I got so sick of seing the check_region warnings from BusLogic.c I actually fixed it properly. Never use check region, reserve it before the probe with request region instead and check the error result; free region if setup fails. Should be functionally identical to the original except for fixing the potential race. Subject: Fix BusLogic to stop using check_region Signed-off-by: Zachary Amsden

Hi List, I'm stuck how to get a dual head monitor solution to work with Nouveau, running openSUSE 13.1 on my hp8710w mobile workstation equipped with a Nvidia graphical card. Beyond the built-in WUXGA display, an external WQHD monitor is connected to the HDMI port on the graphical card and/or to the dual link DVI-D on a hp docking station. To compare with SLED11/Nvidia driver running in

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I've installed wine and q4wine-0.120+r1-1.9 on SLED11 SP1. Whereas the wine shell works OK - iexplorer and notepad are active, I'm unable to make q4wine first launch- neither from the glass icon nor from GNOME terminal. The terminal after the command: me at linux:~> q4wine produces: Code: q4wine: symbol lookup error: q4wine: undefined symbol:

Hi, I am new to btrfs, and just installed a new system with SLED 11 SP2 a few days ago. However the system seems to be in a real sad state now, saying there is no free space left on the device even though there is about 8GB left on the / filesystem. A defragment works sometimes but then it goes back to the original state a day or two later. Other times the command just won''t respond.

I have no experience with GIS whatsoever. I really know squat about it. I'm currently working on a project to plot locality data for wildlife on a map of Shasta County. This is for a new herpetological club that hopes to track strength of our local herp populations, since it seems evident that in the last 20 years we lost one species of frog and are close to losing another (probably less

I have an old Dell 1950 that I've rescued from Linux and tossed a copy of -STABLE on it, but am seeing a constant 0.5 load average. With the system completely idle, and kern.eventtimer.timer=LACPI, the load drops to the expected value of zero. This feels like it should be an FAQ, but short of noting that the load is non-zero, is there a programatic way to determine if the event timer is

Without this the new kernel cannot receive timer interrupts from the legacy sources. Hangs are observed in the second kernel''s "check_timer()"

HPET intr-near-missing means if the current counter value is too close to the comparator value to be reprogrammed the expected HPET intr may be missing. Linux kernel uses a mininal 48-hpet-ticks(~3.5us) distance to workaround this, but personal observation showed there is still failure case while delta=0xba (~13.5us). So choosing 20us as the MIN_DELTA_NS should be helpful to prevent near-missing

Linux up to now is not smart enough to properly clear the HPET when it boots, which is particularly a problem when a kdump attempt from running under Xen is being made. Linux itself added code to work around this to its shutdown paths quite some time ago, so let''s do something similar in Xen: Save the configuration register settings during boot, and restore them during shutdown. This

I have an error in my dmesg system log about hpet not correctly enabling: hpet_acpi_add: no address or irqs in _CRS The same kernel without Xen enables it fine: hpet0: at MMIO 0xfed00000 (virtual 0xffffffffff5fe000), IRQs 2, 8, 31 hpet0: 3 32-bit timers, 25000000 Hz hpet_resources: 0xfed00000 is busy Do I have to pass an additional boot option? (ACPI is already enabled) or is there

Due to recent changes in timer handling (specifically building hpet emulation on top of Xen system time and ensuring it is monotonic), I wonder if it now makes sense to: 1) change hvm default for hpet to 1 (was 0) 2) change hvm timer_mode default from 0 to 2 I encouraged adding the hvm hpet parameter and defaulting it to 0 because the virtual hpet was not reliable and many guests/versions

Windows SVVP tests requiring a HPET ACPI table is in my opinion not a valid reason to always expose that table - respective tests should be run with "hpet=1" in the guest config file. The problem here is that at least with qemu-traditional, which by default doesn''t appear to emulate a HPET, the advertising here can mislead an OS to believe that there actually is a usable HPET,
